Creative Classroom Engagement Resources

Help me give my students resources they can use to increase engagement and academic success!

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

For this project, I surveyed my students and asked them what they wanted more of in class; one of the resounding answers was time for fun while learning. All of the resources in this project can be used to increase students' social skills while engaging in games and instructional activities that allow them to have fun while they learn.

All of the students in the RISE Academy have struggled with engagement in school and respond best to creative and fun opportunities to learn.

By helping to provide our classes with educational games and resources which will help our teachers develop more engaging classroom instruction we are able to reach more students and encourage long-term academic success.
